• Stromsgodset are four points worse off than their opponents in the Elitserien

Sarpsborg on course for another Eliteserien victory

Both Stromsgodset and Sarpsborg are pushing for top-half berths in the Norwegian Eliteserien this season but one side is looking slightly stronger than the other ahead of their clash at the Marienlyst Stadion.

With both sides having played 12 matches, Sarpsborg are out in front with 21 points and Stromsgodset are on 17 points.

But it is Sarpsborg who are in particularly good spirits right now, having won four of their last five matches in all competitions, racking up 17 goals in the process.

A large chunk of those goals came in their 6-1 spanking of Sandefjord last time out and they managed 30 shots in that match, directing 15 of them on target, having won 3-0 away to Rosenborg in their league game beforehand.

They are very much in contention to break into the top three in Norway’s Eliteserien this season and they are the best to win this clash with Stromsgodset.

Visitors Stromsgodset have picked up some big wins in the league of late, edging Bodo/Glimt last month, but they have generally been narrow successes and they also head into this match with midfielder Kreshnik Krasniqi suspended.

Sarpsborg are the bet to win this and we predict a correct score of 2-1 to the visitors.
